answer:well, let’s start with the basics, you need to use itunes to interact with the data management side of your ipod, so you’ll have to use itunes to put the video on your ipod, next, the video will need to be of a .mov or .mp4 format, so yes, that is true :p i don’t know any converters for that…windows, so you’ll have to treasure hunt yourself for that. you can either put the video in your library and then sync your ipod or manually manage your ipod and just drag&drop it on your ipod’s library (through itunes) but one thing, how do you put music on your ipod using winamp? never heard of it really, using a plugin or ext. app. ?
